Oakland A's injury update: Coco Crisp, Chris Young might avoid DL

OAKLAND -- A quick injury roundup because the A's 19-inning victory on Monday night took its toll.

Outfielders Coco Crisp (hamstring) and Chris Young (quadriceps) are out of the lineup against the Angels and could be out a few days. Manager Bob Melvin said the A's are in wait-and-see mode on both players with the hope that they can avoid the disabled list.

Melvin wouldn't say whether either outfielder would be available off the bench tonight, but Crisp, in particular, would be a real long shot.

Jed Lowrie (stiff neck) is also out tonight, but Melvin played down the severity of the shortstop's status. Melvin said he gave Lowrie the day off mostly as a precaution and expected him to be back, perhaps by Wednesday. (For what it's worth, the A's have a day off Thursday).
